Drone strikes on Saturday destroyed crucial Saudi Arabian oil facilities, destroying 5% of the daily global oil supply, and 50% of Saudi Arabic's oil supply and Yemen's Houthi rebels took responsibility for the attacks.







According to reports, The Houthi Rebels are allegedly backed and sponsored by Iran and are seen as a proxy division of the Iranian military but Iran has denied responsibility for the attacks.


The White House, with a possible meeting between US President Donald Trump and Iranian president Rouhani looming, as part of negotiations to quell tensions between both nations diplomatically and in the gulf sea, have refused to rule out a possible military attack on Iran.


'The President will always consider his options," White House counsellor, Kellyane Conway said on "Fox News Sunday" when asked if Trump would still sit down with Rouhani under current circumstances. "We've never committed to that meeting at the United Nations General Assembly. The President's just said he's looking at it."

White House deputy press secretary Judd Deere reacting to the oil field attacks said in a statement.


"The United States strongly condemns today's attack on critical energy infrastructure," Deere said. "Violent actions against civilian areas and infrastructure vital to the global economy only deepen conflict and mistrust."
The US government "remains committed to ensuring global oil markets are stable and well supplied,"







Meanwhile US Secretary of State has put the blame on Iran, calling on other countries to condemn the Iranian regime and their efforts at destabilizing global oil supply.


Trump on Sunday called Saudi Prince Mohammed Bin Salman to reiterate America's support and militia assistance if needed.

“Prince Chika, currently serving prison sentence in Kirikiri for robbery, called me last week to help him hassle around for funds to secure his freedom from prison. I have visited him in the prison a week ago and he had called me from prison to appeal for my assistance. He gave me the location of this gun and some of the arms he used.

He has assured me to pay back within the first few weeks of regaining freedom. I retrieved all these arms from the bush where he kept them before heading for the operation. He told me that he bought the gun in Anambra State for a sum of N5000. Yesterday was the first day I would fire a gun during an operation. Everybody had already left the club in Morocco Road, Igbobi when I scaled the fence. I saw the supervisor, and at gunpoint, I requested for his wallet.

I felt he was wasting time, so, I shot him but he dodged it and raised alarm. I was escaping when I ran into a patrol team of RRS men responding to distress noise. I was a pickpocket and a burglar before venturing into robbery. Last week, I broke into three houses in Somolu. From each of the houses, I collected two mobile phones of my victims. I also got three laptops as well as jewelry. I sold them to Adamu Jubril.

Whenever, I collect ATM cards from victims, it is Korede Baki (22) that assist me in doing the withdrawals. I collected the PIN along with the ATM card at gun point.”
